The contestants came from different backgrounds, including a student, a retired IT engineer, a working mother, a fight promoter, a banking recruitment consultant, and a day trader.

In 2009, Kreil started hablib.com (the shortened version of Habitation Libertum – home freedom), a residential property website that offered an alternative to the usual property advertising offering.

”We do things that other estate agents do, but the difference is that we have decided to charge 0%,” Anton said.

In 2010, Anton founded The Institute of Trading and Portfolio Management (PTM) with the aim to mention, coach, and educate aspirational traders.

In October 2012, Kreil announced that he plans to become the first person to make a financial trade in space. 

In December 2014, it was reported that Anton pledged to give away $1 million to students of the Institute’s Professional Trading Masterclass Video Series. It was also revealed that PTM would release four batches of $250,000 trading accounts.
